| description | Infection of a traumatic amputation stump has a prevalence of 34%. The most common bacteria isolated are Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and
Enterobacterales such as Escherichia coli. These infections occur by direct inoculation in the moment of the trauma or by nosocomial germs. Infections secondary
to manipulation of the wounds with vegetable plasters have few case reports in the literature. Leuconostoc spp. is a Gram-positive coccobacillus commonly found
in agricultural territory and used in the food industry. There are few case reports in the literature about bone infections by Leuconostocs pp. We present a case of
an infection of the operative site of a transfemoral stump by Leuconostoc spp. after a traumatic amputation of the lower limb in a previously healthy patient who
had a possible association to cures with vegetable plasters. |
